DesktopAgent is a PIM (Personal Information Manager) which uses the interactive capabilities of Microsoft Agent in the form of animations, synthetic speech, and voice recognition. DesktopAgent displays two characters which you can control with either your voice or the pop-up menu, enabling you to easily launch applications, read and sort databases, read the contents of the Clipboard, find out your system's status, as well as store, read, and enter notes. You can select which two characters to use, and customize various settings, including startup introduction and tip of the day. The program runs as two convenient icons in the System Tray area of the Windows taskbar.
